Abstract
The jumping spider genus Iranattus Prószyński, 1992, distributed from Africa to southwestern Asia, has been placed within the Harmochirina because of their male palp structures and elongated third legs. Here, we present phylogenomic evidence that it belongs instead to the subtribe Plexippina, further supported by the presence of two coupling pockets in the female epigyne. In this study, we redescribe I. principalis (Wesołowska, 2000) and I. rectangularis Prószyński, 1992. Additionally, the female of I. rectangularis, the type species of the genus, is described for the first time, and we report its range extension east to India.
伊朗蛛属(Iranattus Prószyński,1992 年)分布于非洲到亚洲西南部,由于其雄性上颚结构和第三条腿较长而被归入 Harmochirina。在这里,我们提出了系统发生组学证据,证明它属于 Plexippina 亚科,雌性上皮中存在的两个耦合口袋进一步支持了这一观点。在这项研究中,我们重新描述了 I. principalis (Wesołowska, 2000) 和 I. rectangularis Prószyński, 1992。此外,我们首次描述了该属的模式种 I. rectangularis 的雌性,并报告了其分布范围向东扩展至印度的情况。
期刊介绍:
Zoosystematics and Evolution, formerly Mitteilungen aus dem Museum für Naturkunde in Berlin, is an international, open access, peer-reviewed life science journal devoted to whole-organism biology. It publishes original research and review articles in the field of Metazoan taxonomy, biosystematics, evolution, morphology, development and biogeography at all taxonomic levels. The journal''s scope encompasses primary information from collection-related research, taxonomic descriptions and discoveries, revisions, annotated type catalogues, aspects of the history of science, and contributions on new methods and principles of systematics. Articles whose main topic is ecology, functional anatomy, physiology, or ethology are only acceptable when of systematic or evolutionary relevance and perspective.
